Okay, so there is this thing that it's apparently called subhorizontal back posture that refers to bipedal creatures, which doesn't have erected posture, but instead, they lean forward with front legs/arms not touching ground. Like e.g. velociraptors. It's referenced in these two links: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Virtual-skeleton-of-GPIT1-in-bipedal-posture-in-1-subhorizontal-back-lateral-view-2_fig8_237006075 and https://palaeo-electronica.org/2010_2/198/index.html. I really like characters with such posture and always hated that I can't just search them. I'm asking about this, because I don't want to make the decision like that myself, but also would love to spread the knowledge about it and maybe people would approve it and tag will be created. After all we have tags for everything, even colors of body elements, so tag for a specific posture would be beneficial too.

This posture can literally apply to any character with a horizontal back when standing, because that is what "subhorizontal back" in the article means.
It does not mean a biped, with a horizontally-oriented back and no front legs touching the ground.

In my opinion, it sounds too niche to be a tag. If you still want to do this project for your own use, perhaps consider creating a set instead.

That doesn't have anything to do with posture, but how the crotch and tail connect.

Well I honestly disagree, I dont think it is all that niche, how to call this feature may have just remained rather elusive, there could certainly be a potentially better tag name for it. In that regard opinions about "perpendicular_biped" vs. upright biped and for those in-between hunched_biped/slouched_biped?

(biped;orientation of torso in relation to legs, position of shoulders in relation to the hips)

Feral, anthro, semi-anthro

I must honestly ask are you serious with this response?
If someone is looking for a pinup of a curvaceous female character, do you think telling them to just simply type solo in their search is going meaningfully narrow down their results? because you are doing just that with this.

Besides the fact that being upright does not automatically equal anthro, we have human and humanoid and there are feral animals(besides humans) and creatures/monsters that can be upright.

semi-anthro does not describe this specific anatomy, the tag also can cover the other 2 general builds/postures defined here.Same with feral, it can cover all 3 postures/builds defined here.

I'm pointing out that this is essentially the default body type of feral birds.
